Sink repair in Fallgate without replacing anything
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We’re often asked to fix damage to a basin in a vanity unit and an original basin worth saving, across Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use gentle cleaners
- Repair chips before they stain
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fallgate use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Common problems we fix in Fallgate
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A crazed, tired basin
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Cracks starting at the waste

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
